upper limb training
The 6-week exercise program will consist of evidence-based exercises covering the breadth and depth of rehabilitation interventions. The therapist will choose the appropriate exercises for each participant's level of function from more than 15,000 exercises implemented within the Physiotec app and developed by rehabilitation experts. Personalized upper limb exercises will be based on the therapist initial assessment of participants, using the TERA+ telerehabilitation platform, and their goals. After each training session, participants will have to rate their perceived level of effort on a Borg scale (/10). The Borg scores will be monitored by the therapist as a precautionary measure to ensure safety and appropriateness of intensity of exercises. Participants will be instructed to train at a target score of around 7/10 (somewhat hard) on the Borg scale.
